I couldn't sleep last night; kept thinking about my Taurus guy. He's mourning a loss of family member which I can relate to and he has withdrawn completely. I get it, he doesn't want to talk or be bothered, totally focused at work and other things. I felt the vibe when he responded back to my emails/texts lately. I politely told him that I will leave him alone for a while and give him space but I am here if he needs me of course no matter what. His response "thanks, babe." Now...I am emotional about it. A fool I am I guess. I tend to take on other people's problems as my own (that's the Capricorn lady that I am). I can't help him, he won't let me so my only option was to back away. I'm a bit jealous of those who are around him and since it's not me but I will deal with it. Feels like he's rejecting me but I know it's not the case. It's just my fear. Is that fair for me to feel like that way? I am keeping busy, praying he's ok although it's hard. I miss him more than my words can describe. Taurus People, you know I love you all to death!! My best friend for 21 years is a Taurus. Since you are all big on having your own space, do you appreciate someone who can sense your mood and take the initiative to leave you alone for a while? I'm patient at times. LOL. Did I do the right thing? I don't want to push myself on him.

You're doing the right thing. Keep letting him know you're there and thinking of him. Just give him space to deal with all he's going through. He is thinking of you and missing you and will come back soon.
It's completely understandable to feel rejected and pushed away but don't take it personally. You can't fix this for him. Let him deal and get the emotional control he needs to feel safe and secure again.

Thanks Taurusgirl. You're right, I can't fix. All I can do is give him space.

How are you handling it?
Ohh damnn I went through the same thing... my Taurus lost his dad on Jan 2017... and its April 2018.. he still hasnt gotten over the loss... We started talking from March 2016 and used to talk everyday for houurss on end.. and its a long distance relationship so I cant even help him in person.. He texts me like once a week or when I text him.. and he says he loves me and he's serious about us but doesnt want to talk when He's sad.. He says He's in therapy too... Its so hard for me because the only love I can feel is when we talk and share when we are soo far awayyy.. I had a serious talk with him and he said he will try to meet me finally.. I'm waiting for what might happen.. he still has shown the same contact gap though...I wish he would let me in and let me help himm!! I just hope it works becausee I doo love him but if he's distant always.. I'll have to call it quits... 😢 And we have not met since 2 yearss!! so Its Killinngg me 😢
